# Access and pricing

> You pay for continuous access to the stream. The records it delivers are yours.

<Info>
  Data Feeds is in early access. [Contact us](mailto:support@ploti.ai) to set up
  a subscription; the API and sync client described here open to early access
  customers first.
</Info>

Ploti is infrastructure. Its agents collect public records from municipal and county sources, version them and pipe them into one stream per subscription. A Data Feeds subscription pays for that stream. It is not a purchase of a dataset.

## What you pay for

* **Continuous collection** from every source in the places you subscribe to, including sources Ploti adds later
* **Versioning**: snapshots, changes files and schema versions for every dataset
* **Delivery**: signed links or writes into your own bucket, plus events and webhooks

Pricing follows the places and topics a subscription covers. [Contact us](mailto:support@ploti.ai) for platform pricing.

## What is yours

Every snapshot, changes file and schema you receive is yours to keep, in your own systems, for as long as you like.

## When a subscription ends

<Steps>
  <Step title="Delivery stops">
    No new versions, changes files or events are delivered after the
    subscription ends. Pushes to your bucket stop and file links stop being
    issued.
  </Step>

  <Step title="What you received stays">
    Nothing is recalled and you are not asked to delete anything. Your tables
    and files keep working; they stop getting newer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Coming back">
    Subscribe again and read the subscription's
    [manifest](/docs/platforms/quickstart): it links each dataset's current snapshot,
    so you can reload or catch up from there.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## How this differs from buying data

| | Buying a dataset | A Ploti subscription |
| - | - | - |
| What you pay for | A copy of the records | Continuous access to the stream |
| After you stop paying | Often a licence to delete | The records you received stay yours |
| Freshness | As of the purchase | Each new version as the source publishes it |
| New sources | A new purchase | Join your subscription on their own |
